You can stream The Astronaut Wives Club (2015) on Wonder Project Amazon Channel with a subscription.

As America’s astronauts were launched on death-defying missions, Life Magazine documented the astronauts’ families, capturing the behind-the-scenes lives of their young wives. Overnight, these women were transformed from military spouses into American royalty. As their celebrity rose and tragedy began to touch their lives, they rallied together.

Glitz and mid-century glamour collide with the crushing anxiety of waiting for a radio signal from the stars. These women trade quiet domesticity for sudden, suffocating celebrity while praying their husbands return from the void.
